A: Be sure you have declare AfxOleInit() ( Usually you call this function in your InitInstance) Or you can declare a struct like this in your main cpp file struct InitOle { InitOle() { ::OleInitialize(NULL);} ~InitOle() {OleUninitialize();} }OLE; Q: Why when I compile I have this error A: Dont forget to include the file you need in your cpp file. Q: I would like to know why CreateDispatch returned FALSE ? A: Just declare COleException variable before you called CreateDispatch. CreateDispatch can have a second parameter of type COleException.
